The situation in Syria and the hard condition of Syrian Armenians remain in the focus of attention of His Holiness Karekin II, Supreme Patriarch and Catholicos of All Armenians, and the Mother See of Holy Etchmiadzin.
The Dioceses of the Armenian Apostolic Church permanently provide assistance to Syrian Armenians through the Mother See.
On the occasion of Christmas, the Mother See of Holy Etchmiadzin has transferred $100 thousand to the Armenian Diocese in Damascus in aid to Armenian schools in Syria.
